I have a Samba PDC (Ubuntu 12, OpenLDAP 2.4.28, Samba 3.6.3), and at two remote sites, I have some Samba BDCs. For now I've manually entered the DCs as WINS servers on the workstations I'm using for testing. At the remote sites, I can log in with an account that has no logon path or logon home specified, and it works perfectly. But at the main site, when I try to log on to one of these

Ok, I have some results. On Mon, Nov 23, 2015 at 7:03 PM, Robert Watson <robert at gillecaluim.com> wrote: > I don't have a solution other than creating gpo on a win7 client.

I'm looking for an up-to-date howto on using Samba as an AD PDC. I've been using Samba since the days of yore, but have recently acquired the resources to take another stab at implementing an AD system using Samba. Perhaps it has escaped notice that the page with the link text "Official HOWTO" on samba.org points to https://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/

So I am still stuck. For reference here is the smb.conf on the member server: root at florence:~# more /etc/samba/smb.conf [global] netbios name = FLORENCE security = ADS workgroup = IOL realm = IOL.SEAMANPAPER.COM log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log log level = 1 dedicated keytab file = /etc/krb5.keytab kerberos method = secrets and keytab

Hi, I am testing share parameters, and have the following share definition: ## Section - [shareA] [shareA] path = /tmp/shareA writelist = user1 and do not understand why user1 cannot write files in the share when connected as user1. Unix permissions for the share files are rw for everyone, and the share directory has wide-open permissions. Samba version is 3.0.20b-3.4-SUSE.

Hi, I'm working on a server that was upgraded a few weeks ago (Linux Mandriva was reinstalled with a more up-to-date Samba version which is 3.3.2). Now, roaming profiles no longer work. I even wonder what would be the proper to way to test them. Workstations are running Windows XP. I followed the procedure for Win2000/XP located here:

That would be great, because I've just cleaned up about 40 entries using the Windows DNS Manager gui tool! I also learnt a lot about adding extra NS and PTR records using this gui tool (mydomain.com and

Dear all, trying to build some Heimdal-based packages for Samba AD DC under openSUSE I am facing some difficulties with the build system: During the installation which is triggered by "make install" waf complains about some task dependency cycle after leaving folder bin/default.

Running the sernet distribution of Samba 4.2 on Ubuntu 14 LTS. I have a DC and a Member Server and I have a Windows 8.1 workstation on which I can log in and get a drive mapped to a share on the Member Server. I want to try setting up a GPO. The goal is to redirect the documents folder on windows workstations to a network share. So I start the Group Policy Management tool on my windows 8.1

Just replied to another thread with the same problem... This is on a member server, not the DC. No the second chgrp command with the escaped space doesn't work. Getent returns big numbers for the uids and gids.... too big, I think. root at florence:/home# getent passwd Administrator administrator:*:4294967295:4294967295::/home/IOL/administrator:/bin/false root at florence:/home# getent

Hi. I'm running Sernet Samba 4.7 on Ubuntu 16. I noticed that when my first DC went away, I had problems. The SOA record for the domain still points at that first DC. I found, in this entry from 2014 ( https://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2014-August/184301.html) that "Windows AD servers actually 'lie' about the SOA record, and always say that it points to themselves. So in a

Now after a second attempt to log in under the account with redirection on Windows 8.1 I get "The Group Policy Client service failed the sign-in." "The universal unique identifyer (UUID) type is not supported." Yeah.

Hi. I'm following this document: https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Setup_Samba_as_an_AD_Domain_Member - setting up my second Samba server in a test environment. We're planning a medium to large-scale deployment (six sites, 8 domain controllers, 8 NAS boxes, 120 workstations). I've already set up an AD Controller and successfully joined a Windows workstation to it. I got down to
